Notes & reviews

umpchange,2,umphome,diazl901
umpchange,2,ump2b,(None)
Giambi breaks bat, heavy part hits umpire Foster on knee. He goes down immediately and game is delayed for 15 minutes while he is attended to. X-rays reveal bad bruise, but no break. Umpire Laz Diaz moves from 2b to plate.
umpchange,3,ump2b,fairc901
Chad Fairchild enters to umpire at 2B. He had just arrived in Toronto to be a vacation replacement for Diaz following day
